@jlarmstrongiv, thank you fir sharing those! I will try to address those, and come back with WASM updates with a week 🤗

from usearch.

Thank you for acknowledging this issue, @jlarmstrongiv! We are already working with @syrusakbary and broader @wasmerio team to provide a solution 🤗

from usearch.

@ashvardanian Yes, I think it would. Especially since usearch already builds a Wasmer package

from usearch.

Very excited about usearch in the browser, will open up many more applications! Using OPFS for FS should work in all modern browsers!

@jlarmstrongiv, nice! Can it help us to run USearch in the browser?

from usearch.

not sure if this helps but looking into wasmer filesystem it has an in memory fs abstraction in the browser, but it looks like they will be able to support opfs wasmerio/wasmer-js#393

from usearch.

I tried to find confirmation that it also works in WKWebView but couldn't find that explicitly

from usearch.

I don't know about WKWebView, but since it's basically safari it should. You can always test it yourself when in doubt.
RXDB has quite a great info on OPFS:

From the beginning of 2023, the Origin Private File System API is supported by all modern browsers like Safari, Chrome, Edge and Firefox.
It is important to know that the OPFS API is only available inside of a WebWorker. It cannot be used in the main thread, an iFrame or even a SharedWorker.
